Information Emily D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog requires any routine medication, assistance or has special needs. Most importantly, please let me know if your dog takes kindly to strangers and would be comfortable- for my safety but also, to ensure your pet won’t be under any stress.

A typical day

We’ll definitely play in the backyard with any dog toys you have handy. I also have some toys I could bring as well. As for walks, depending where you are located, I take the back streets to avoid all the commotion of main street and tourists for a nice laid back walking experience.

Pet care experience

I’ve had pets all my life. Dogs, cats, aquatics, small animals and a parrot! I absolutely love animals. It’s a huge passion of mine. I enjoy taking care of and bonding with them! Whether it’s playing with dogs or chilling with cats. **if needing care only for exotics such as rodents, reptiles, birds etc. mark them as ‘cats’ and just specify in your booking request ◡̈ as I know Rover only has dog and cat categories**

I couldn’t be happier with the care my dogs, Annie Mae and Gus, received while I was away for four nights. Knowing they were able to stay in their own home made all the difference, and it was clear they were loved and well cared for the entire time. I especially appreciated all the pictures and updates—they gave me so much peace of mind and let me see how happy and comfortable they were. Annie Mae and Gus were relaxed and content when I got home, which says everything about the wonderful care they received. I highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with Emily again!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
